Definitions
- This invention relates to an assembly for a drug delivery device and a drug delivery device incorporating such an assembly.
- a piston within a cartridge that contains a drug may be provided.
- the piston may be displaced with respect to the cartridge for delivering a dose of the drug from the cartridge. It is desirable that the dispensed dose of the drug matches the dose which was previously set by a user as good as possible. That is to say, the device should have a high dose accuracy. In particular, it should be avoided that a dose dispensing action may be triggered when the size of the set dose exceeds the quantity of drug present in the cartridge.
- Drug delivery devices are described in documents WO 2008/031238 A1 and US 2007/0197976 A1 .
- an assembly for a drug delivery device comprises a housing, at least one stop feature, a piston rod configured to be axially displaced with respect to the housing for delivering a dose of a drug, at least one blocking member being part of the piston rod, a rotation member and a drive member.
- the stop feature is part of the rotation member.
- the rotation member is configured to rotate in a dose setting direction with respect to the housing for setting a dose of a drug.
- the rotation member is configured to rotate in a dose delivery direction with respect to the housing for delivering the set dose of the drug.
- the drive member is adapted to follow rotational movement of the rotation member in the dose delivery direction with respect to the housing by mechanical interaction with the rotation member, wherein the drive member and the piston rod are rotationally locked with each other.
- the stop feature is configured to be rotated in the dose setting direction with respect to the blocking member and with respect to the housing.
- the blocking member is configured to be axially displaced with respect to the stop feature away from an axial starting position and towards an axial interaction position. When the blocking member is in the axial starting position, the blocking member is axially offset from the stop feature.
- the blocking member is arranged and/or configured to mechanically cooperate with, in particular to abut, the stop feature.
- the assembly comprises a stop member which is adapted to prevent rotational movement of the drive member in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing by mechanical cooperation with the drive member when the rotation member is rotated in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing.
- a further aspect relates to a drug delivery device.
- the drug delivery device expediently comprises the assembly described above.
- the drug delivery device comprises a cartridge.
- the cartridge may hold a plurality of doses of the drug.
- the assembly may provide an end-stop mechanism for the drug delivery device.
- the end-stop mechanism may be configured to prevent setting of a dose of the drug which exceeds a quantity of the drug present in the cartridge.
- the drug delivery device may be an injection device.
- the drug delivery device may be a pen-type device, e.g. a pen-type injector.
- the drug delivery device is a device configured to dispense pre-set doses of the drug.
- the drug may be a liquid medication, such as long-acting or short-acting insulin, heparin or growth hormones.
- the stop feature For setting a dose of the drug the stop feature may be rotated in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing. For delivering the set dose the stop feature may be rotated in a dose delivery direction with respect to the housing. The dose delivery direction may be opposite to the dose setting direction.
- the blocking member In the axial interaction position the blocking member may be positioned at the axial position of the stop feature with respect to the housing such that the blocking member and the stop feature may interact, in particular abut.
- the blocking member When the blocking member is in the axial interaction position the whole amount of the drug held in the cartridge which was intended for dispense may have been dispensed. Consequently, dispensing of a subsequent full-size dose of the drug may no longer be possible.
- the axial interaction position setting of a subsequent dose of the drug may be prevented due to mechanical cooperation of the stop feature and the blocking member, and hence, underdosing may be prevented. In this way, a user-friendly and safe drug delivery device may be achieved.
- the blocking member and the stop feature are configured to rotate together in a dose delivery direction with respect to the housing.
- the blocking member is secured against rotation in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing.
- common rotation of the blocking member and the stop feature in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing for setting a dose of the drug may be prevented when the blocking member and the stop feature mechanically cooperate with each other.
- the stop feature is rotated about a stop feature angle in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing for setting the dose of the drug.
- the blocking member may be rotated about a blocking member delivery angle in the dose delivery direction with respect to the housing when the blocking member is displaced from the axial starting position towards the axial interaction position.
- the angular distance between the blocking member and the stop feature is expediently less than the stop feature angle.
- the minimum rotation angle of the stop feature necessary for setting a minimum dose may be greater than the angular distance between the stop feature and the blocking member in the interaction position. Hence, completion of a further dose setting action is prevented when the blocking member is in the axial interaction position.
- the stop feature is rotated by less than 360 degrees in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing for setting the dose of the drug.
- the blocking member is rotated by 360 degrees or more in the dose delivery direction with respect to the housing when being displaced from the axial starting position towards the axial interaction position.
- the stop feature when the blocking member is out of the axial interaction position, the stop feature may pass the angular position of the blocking member when being rotated in the dose setting direction.
- the stop feature when the amount of the drug held in the cartridge exceeds the size of a dose to be set and delivered the stop feature may be rotatable in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing, thereby passing the angular position of the blocking member without mechanical cooperation, in particular abutment, with the blocking member.
- setting of at least a minimum dose of the drug is enabled when the blocking member is not in the axial interaction position.
- the axial interaction position may be defined by the axial position of the stop feature within the housing.
- the blocking member when a last dose has been delivered, e.g. when a subsequent minimum settable dose of the drug would exceed the present quantity of the drug in the cartridge, the blocking member has been axially displaced with respect to the stop feature such that the blocking member is positioned at the axial position of the stop feature, i.e. the blocking member overlaps the stop feature.
- axial displacement distance of the blocking member from the axial starting position to the axial interaction position corresponds to the total amount of the drug held in the cartridge.
- a rotation member is provided.
- the rotation member may be configured to rotate in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing for setting the dose of the drug.
- the rotation member may be configured to rotate in the dose delivery direction with respect to the housing for delivering the set dose of the drug.
- the stop feature may be part of the rotation member. The stop feature may thus rotate when the rotation member rotates.
- a piston rod is provided.
- the blocking member may be part of the piston rod.
- the piston rod may be configured to be axially displaced with respect to the housing for delivering a dose of the drug.
- the rotation axis runs along the piston rod and, in particular, along a main direction of extent of the piston rod.
- the piston rod is threadedly engaged with the housing.
- the piston rod may be configured to displace the piston axially with respect to the cartridge for expelling the set dose of the drug from the cartridge.
- the stop feature protrudes radially, preferably radially inwardly, from the rotation member.
- the blocking member protrudes radially, preferably radially outwardly, from the piston rod.
- a drive member is provided.
- the drive member may be adapted to follow rotational movement of the rotation member in the dose delivery direction with respect to the housing by mechanical cooperation with the rotation member. Rotation of the drive member in the dose delivery direction with respect to the housing may be converted into axial movement of the piston rod with respect to the housing.
- a stop member may be provided. The stop member may be adapted to prevent rotational movement of the drive member in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing by mechanical cooperation with the drive member, when the rotation member is rotated in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing.
- the drive member and the stop member may be coupled, preferably permanently for setting and delivering a dose of the drug, to one another by a uni-directional friction clutch mechanism, for example a slip clutch.
- the clutch mechanism may be configured to prevent relative rotational movement between the drive member and the stop member during rotation of the rotation member in the dose setting direction.
- the clutch mechanism may be configured to permit relative rotational movement between the stop member and the drive member during rotation of the rotation member in the dose delivery direction.
- a resilient member may be provided. The resilient member may provide a force keeping the drive member in engagement, preferably permanent engagement, with the stop member and the rotation member during dose setting and dose delivery.
- the drive member and the rotation member may be in, preferably permanent, mechanical contact.
- the drive member and the rotation member may be coupled, preferably permanently coupled, to one another by a uni-directional friction clutch mechanism.
- the friction clutch mechanism may be configured to permit relative rotational movement between the rotation member and the drive member when setting a dose of the drug. In this way, rotation of the piston rod and, hence, of the blocking member in the dose setting direction may be effectively prevented.
- the friction clutch mechanism may be configured to prevent relative rotational movement of the rotation member and the drive member for delivering the set dose of the drug.
- the rotation member may be axially moveable with respect to the housing only in a limited fashion.
- axial movement of the rotation member may be influenced by the configuration of the friction clutch mechanism, e.g. by the depth of teeth of the friction clutch mechanism.
- Axial movement of the rotation member beyond a given axial distance, which may be determined by the teeth of the friction clutch mechanism, may be limited by means of mechanical cooperation of the rotation member and the housing, for example.
- the drive member and the piston rod are rotationally locked with each other.
- the piston rod is splined to the drive member.
- the assembly comprises at least two blocking members.
- the two blocking members may be oppositely disposed.
- an assembly for a drug delivery device comprises a housing, at least one stop feature and at least one blocking member.
- the stop feature is configured to be rotated in a dose setting direction with respect to the blocking member and with respect to the housing and, for delivering the set dose of the drug, the blocking member is configured to be axially displaced with respect to the stop feature away from an axial starting position and towards an axial interaction position.
- the blocking member is axially offset from the stop feature and, when the blocking member is in the axial interaction position, the blocking member is configured to mechanically cooperate with the stop feature such that rotation of the stop feature in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing is prevented.

- the drive member 14 and the rotation member 15 are preferably configured to rotate about a common rotation axis when delivering the set dose.
- the rotation axis may be a main longitudinal axis of the housing 11.
- the rotation axis runs along the piston rod 10 and, in particular, along a main direction of extent of the piston rod 10.
- the rotation member 15 and the drive member 14 are in permanent mechanical contact.
- the rotation member 15 is coupled to the drive member 14 by a uni-directional clutch mechanism, in particular a friction clutch mechanism, for example a slipping clutch.
- the clutch mechanism permits rotational movement of the rotation member 15 with respect to the drive member 14 when the rotation member 15 rotates in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing 11, e.g. when setting a dose of the drug.
- the clutch mechanism prevents rotational movement of the rotation member 15 with respect to the drive member 14, when the rotation member 15 rotates in the dose delivery direction with respect to the housing 11, e.g. when delivering the set dose of the drug 5. Consequently, the drive member 14 follows rotational movement of the rotation member 15 in the dose delivery direction with respect to the housing 11 when delivering the set dose of the drug 5.
- the drive member 14 may be arranged to abut or engage the rotation member 15.
- the drive member 14 comprises a toothing (see toothing 28 in Figure 3 ), which may be arranged at the proximal end section of the drive member 14, for example.
- the rotation member 15 comprises a toothing (see toothing 29 in Figure 3 ), which may be arranged at the distal end section of the rotation member 15, for example.
- toothing 29 may be arranged at one end section of the rotation member 15 which faces the drive member 14.
- Toothing 29 and toothing 28 may be configured to mate with each other.
- Toothing 28 comprises a plurality of teeth (teeth 30 in Figure 3 ).
- Toothing 29 comprises a plurality of teeth (see teeth 31 in Figure 3 ). Teeth 30 and teeth 31 may extend along the rotation axis.

- a respective tooth of teeth 30 and teeth 31 may be ramp-shaped, in particular along an azimuthal direction with respect to the rotation axis.
- the ramp of the respective tooth 30, 31 is limited in the azimuthal direction by a steep end face of said tooth, e.g. a face of the tooth 30, 31 that runs parallel to the rotation axis.
- the depth of a tooth 30, 31 of the respective toothing 28, 29 determines the distance by which the rotation member 15 is axially moveable with respect to the housing 11.
- axial movement of the rotation member 15 with respect to the housing 11 is prevented, e.g. by mechanical cooperation of the rotation member 15 and the housing 11, in case that the axial distance exceeds the depth of a respective tooth 30, 31 of toothings 28, 29.
- the drive member 14 may engage the piston rod 10.
- the drive member 14 may be splined to the piston rod 10.
- the piston rod 10 comprises a guide notch (see guide notch 27, Figures 5 and 7 ).

- the guide rib extends inside the drive member 14 along the main longitudinal axis of the housing 11.
- the corresponding guide notch 27 may extend at an outer side of the piston rod 10 along the main longitudinal axis of the piston rod 10.
- the splined connection of the drive member 14 and the piston rod 10 prevents relative rotational movement of the drive member 14 with respect to piston rod 10 and vice versa. Hence, the drive member 14 and the piston rod 10 are permanently rotationally locked.
- the drive member 14 is configured to transfer force, preferably torque, to the piston rod 10.
- the force transferred may cause the piston rod 10 to be rotated with respect to the housing 11. Additionally or alternatively, the force transferred may cause the piston rod 10 to be displaced in the distal direction with respect to the housing 11 for delivering a dose of the drug 5.
- the piston rod 10 comprises a thread (see thread 35, Figure 4 , 5 and 7 ).
- the thread 35 may be arranged at an outer surface of the piston rod 10.
- a counterpart, e.g. a further thread, may be provided inside the housing 11 for a threaded engagement of the housing 11 and piston rod 10. Rotational movement of the piston rod 10 may be converted into axial movement of the piston rod 10 in the distal direction with respect to the housing 11 due to the threaded engagement of the piston rod 10 and the housing 11.
- the drive member 14 may be arranged between the stop member 16 and the rotation member 15.
- the stop member 16 is configured to prevent rotational movement of the drive member 14 in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing 11 when setting the dose of the drug 5. Consequently, when setting the dose, the rotation member 15 rotates with respect to the drive member 14 and with respect to the stop member 16.
- the stop member 16 is preferably secured against rotation with respect to the housing 11.
- the stop member 16 may be splined to the housing 11.
- the stop member 16 may be coupled to the drive member 14 by means of a uni-directional clutch mechanism.
- the clutch mechanism prevents rotational movement of the drive member 14 with respect to the stop member 16 when the rotation member 15 rotates in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing, e.g. when setting the dose of the drug 5.
- the clutch mechanism permits rotational movement of the drive member 14 with respect to the stop member 16 when the rotation member 15 rotates in the dose delivery direction with respect to the housing 11, e.g. when delivering the set dose of the drug 5.

- the drive member 14 comprises a toothing (see toothing 33 in Figure 3 ), preferably at the distal end section of the drive member 14. Thereby, toothing 28 and toothing 33 of the drive member 14 are disposed oppositely. Toothing 33 may be configured in accordance with toothing 29 of the rotation member 15.

- the guide slots 18 may be provided in the housing 11.
- a guide lug 17 cooperates with a guide slot 18 to prevent rotational movement of the stop member 16 with respect to the housing 11 with distal movement of the stop member 16 with respect to the housing 11 being allowed.
- the drive mechanism further comprises a resilient member 19, for example a spring member.
- the resilient member 19 may be biased during dose delivery.
- the resilient member 19 may provide a force keeping the drive member 14 in permanent mechanical cooperation, e.g. engagement, with the stop member 16 and the rotation member 15, when setting and delivering a dose.
- the drive mechanism comprises a support member 20.
- the support member 20 may be secured against axial and rotational movement with respect to the housing 11.
- the support member 20 may be unitary with the housing 11.

- the rotation member 15 comprises a protruding portion 21.
- the protruding portion 21, e.g. a flange portion, may protrude radially outwardly with respect to the rotation member 15.
- the protruding portion 21 may be configured to abut support member 20. The protruding portion 21 prevents proximal displacement of the rotation member 15 with respect to the housing 15.
- the dose member 22 may be a part of the dose part 12 (see Figure 1 ) or operatively connected to the dose part 12.
- the rotation member 15 may be arranged inside the dose member 22.
- Dose member 22 may be movable with respect to the housing 11. Dose member 22 may be moved in the proximal direction with respect to the rotation member 15 and with respect to the housing 11 when setting a dose, which is indicated by arrow 26a in Figure 2 .

- movement of the dose member 22 in proximal direction with respect to the housing 11 when setting a dose may be converted into rotation of the rotation member 15 in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing 11.
- Movement of the dose member 22 in the distal direction with respect to the housing 11 when delivering the set dose may be converted into rotation of the rotation member 15 in the dose delivery direction with respect to the housing 11.

- Figure 4B shows an exploded view of the drug delivery device 1.
- Figure 4C shows an inner view of the housing 11.
- the rotation member 15 comprises the stop feature 36 as mentioned previously.
- the rotation member may comprise two or more stop features 36.
- the stop feature 36 is localized at the distal end section of the rotation member 15.
- the stop feature 36 is provided inside the rotation member 15.
- the stop feature 36 is preferably arranged at a distal end section of the rotation member 15.
- the stop feature 36 is arranged inside the rotation member 15.
- the stop feature 36 protrudes radially inwardly from the rotation member 15.
- the stop feature 36 is preferably integrally formed with the rotation member 15.
- a separate stop feature 36 may be connected to the rotation member 15.
- the stop feature 36 is secured against translational and rotational movement with respect to the rotation member 15.
- the piston rod 10 comprises two blocking members 34.
- the blocking members 34 may be arranged in a proximal end section of the piston rod 10.
- the blocking members 34 may be oppositely arranged.
- the piston rod 10 may comprise only one blocking member 34.
- the piston rod may 10 comprise three or more blocking members 34.
- the blocking members 34 are integrally formed with the piston rod 10.
- the blocking members 34 may be connected to the piston rod 10.
- the blocking members 34 may protrude radially outwardly from the piston rod 10.
- the blocking members 34 are secured against translational and rotational movement with respect to the piston rod 10.
- the stop feature 36 rotates together with the rotation member 15 in the dose setting direction with respect to the blocking members 34 and with respect to the housing 11 for setting a dose.
- the stop feature 36 may be rotated about a stop feature angle in the dose setting direction.
- the stop feature 36 is rotated by less than 360 degrees in the dose setting direction with respect to the blocking members 34.
- the blocking members 34 may be secured against rotation in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing 11 as the piston rod 10 is prevented from being rotated in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing 11, as it was described previously.
- the stop feature 36 may be rotated about a stop feature angle of 90 degrees, for example, for setting a dose of the drug 5. As being part of the rotation member 15 significant axial displacement of the stop feature 36, or any axial displacement, with respect to the housing 11 may be prevented, when setting and delivering a dose.
- the stop feature 36 rotates together with the rotation member 15 in the dose delivery direction for delivering the set dose of the drug 5. Accordingly, the blocking members 34 rotate together with the piston rod 10 in the dose delivery direction for delivering the set dose of the drug 5.
- the stop feature 36 is configured to be rotated together with the blocking members 34 in the dose delivery direction with respect to the housing 11. The blocking members 34 may rotate with respect to the stop feature 36.
- the blocking members 34 are configured to be displaced together with the piston rod 10 in the distal direction with respect to the housing 11 for delivering the set dose of the drug 5, thereby being axially displaced with respect to the stop feature 36.
- the blocking members 34 may be axially displaced from an axial starting position and towards an axial interaction position. In the axial starting position the blocking members 34 may be axially offset from the stop feature 36. In the axial interaction position the blocking members 34 may overlap with the stop feature 36.
- the stop feature 36 may pass an angular position of the blocking members 34 while being rotated about the stop feature angle.
- the stop feature 36 may be rotatable about at least a minimum stop feature angle, e.g. the angle required for completion of a dose setting action, e.g. 90 degrees, in the dose setting direction with respect to the housing 11 for setting a dose.
- the blocking members 34 may be rotated about a blocking member delivery angle in the dose delivery direction with respect to the housing 11 when being displaced from the axial starting position towards the axial interaction position.
- the blocking members 34 are rotated by 360 degrees or more in the dose delivery direction with respect to the housing 11 when being displaced from the axial starting position towards the axial interaction position.
- the blocking members 34 when a last dose has been delivered, e.g. when a subsequent minimum settable dose of the drug 5 would exceed the quantity of the drug 5 still present in the cartridge 4, the blocking members 34 have been axially displaced with respect to the stop feature 36 such that the blocking members 34 are positioned in the axial interaction position, e.g. the blocking members 34 overlap the stop feature 36.
- the total axial displacement distance of the blocking members 34 from the axial starting position into the axial interaction position corresponds to the total amount of the drug 5 held in the cartridge 4.
- the axial interaction position may be defined by the axial position of the stop feature 36 with respect to the housing 11. Hence, when the blocking members 34 have reached the axial position of the stop feature 36 the blocking members 34 are in the axial interaction position.
- the drive mechanism may be configured such that axial displacement of the piston rod 10 for delivering the set dose results in the blocking members 34 being in the axial interaction position when the distal end position of the piston rod 10 was reached.
- the outer thread 35 of the piston rod 10 and the inner thread of the housing 11 may be adapted such that the blocking members 34 overlap with the stop feature 36 when the piston rod 10 has reached the distal end position, e.g. when the piston 9 has reached the most distal position in the cartridge 4.
- the angular distance between the blocking members 34 and the stop feature 36 is expediently less than the stop feature angle.
- the minimum rotation angle of the stop feature 36 necessary for setting a minimum dose may be greater than the angular distance between the stop feature 36 and the blocking members 34. Hence, a further dose setting action is prevented when the blocking members 34 are in the axial interaction position.
- the stop feature 36 and the blocking members 34 provide an end-stop mechanism for the drug delivery device 1. Setting of a dose of the drug 5 which exceeds a quantity of the drug 5 still held in the cartridge 4 is thus effectively prevented. In this way, underdosing, which may have fatal or even lethal consequences for the user, may be prevented.
- Figure 5 schematically shows a perspective sectional view of a part of Figure 4B .
- Figure 5 shows the piston rod 10 comprising the two blocking members 34.
- the blocking members 34 are disposed oppositely and protrude radially outwardly from the piston rod 10 as described above.
- the piston rod 10 may comprise guide notch 27.
- Guide notch 27 may enable splined connection of the piston rod 10 with the drive member 14 as described in connection with the description of Figures 2 and 3 .
- the piston rod 10 comprises two guide notches 27.
- the guide notches 27 may be arranged oppositely (see Figure 7 ).
- the piston rod 10 comprises the outer thread 35. Outer thread 35 may enable threaded connection of the piston rod 10 with the housing 11, as explained in conjunction with the description of Figure 1 .
- Figure 6 schematically shows a perspective sectional view of another part of Figure 4B .
- Figure 6 shows the rotation member 15.
- the rotation member 15 comprises the stop feature 36.
- the stop feature 36 protrudes radially inwardly from the rotation member 15.
- the rotation member 15 comprises thread 24. Thread 24 may enable threaded engagement of the rotation member 15 and the dose member 22 as mentioned previously.
- Figure 7 schematically shows a sectional view of a part of the drug delivery device of Figure 1 .
- Figure 7 shows mechanical cooperation of the stop feature 36 and the stop members 34.
- a last dose of the drug 5 held in the cartridge 4 may have been dispensed, i.e. the piston 9 may have reached the most distal end position in the cartridge 4, and thus, the blocking members 34 are positioned in the axial interaction position.
- the blocking members 34 and the stop feature 36 mechanically cooperate, in particular overlap, in the interaction position. Rotation of the stop feature 36 and hence, of the rotation member 15 may be prevented in this way as described in connection with Figure 4 . Thus, setting of a subsequent dose of the drug 5 may be prevented.
- the device 1 effectively prevents setting of a dose of the drug 5 which exceeds the present quantity of the drug 5 held in the cartridge 4. Hence, the device 1 provides an end-stop mechanism. In this way, underdosing, which may have fatal or lethal consequences for the user, may be prevented. Consequently, the drug delivery device 1 described herein provides an increased safety for the user.
- the device 1 is a fixed dose drug delivery device, e.g. a device configured to dispense a plurality of pre-set doses of the drug 5, in particular doses which may not be varied by the user.
- the angle by which the stop feature 36 is rotated in the dose setting direction for setting a dose of the drug i.e. the stop feature angle, may be the same for each dose setting action.
